Chicken fried rice for dinner through the weekday

tarheelmatt

I cook many meals on Sunday for the week so we don't have to cook when we get home from work.  With a 14 month old, it is tough to get many things done.  

Did some chicken fried rice and also some marinated chicken breast that I cut up to get more flavor.  


Rice consisted of: 

Jasmine rice
Fresh bean sprouts
Cabbage
Green onion
Green pepper
Red pepper
Carrots
2 Eggs
Chicken (marinated in ginger, garlic, canola, soy sauce, dijon mustard)
Ginger, fresh
Garlic, fresh
Soy sauce


1 - Get the ginger and garlic nice and small.  I use a microplane.  




2 - The setup



3 - Fried the egg first





4 -  Then veggies





5 - Then chicken





6 - Then rice.  The fire was screaming hot!  Good pair of heat gloves are recommended. 




7 - Then add all ingredients when rice is nice and dry and crispy.  




8  -  The finished product



9 - The grilled chicken and burger for the week (burgers are for my lunches).

Thanks @DMW, I completely understand.  That's the reason I cooked it today for the week instead of relying on all world's to align for me to get off work early or on time and cook.

Brother tar, everything looks outstanding for sure. Adding the videos is a cool touch as well my friend. Great job on the cook as well as documenting it. However I one concern. You stated above that the grub will last from tonight through the week. If this is true, your consumption levels need improving

Like the video- I really like food using my wok. Need to start using it more.

Thanks!  I love woking especially on the Egg as the house doesn't smell afterwards and clean up is a cinch!
